Quick Delete Members from Memberlist in phpBB3

February 18, 2011

Memberlist Mod for phpBB3 No matter what I do, I still get spam on my phpbb3 forums.  It seems like there should be better spam prevention by now, but apparently the spammers are presistant.  Generally, I go through and delete & ban the users one by one.  I’m fairly sure banning is a waste of [...]

Single Login for PhpBB3 & Coppermine

April 2, 2010

PhpBB3 to Coppermine Bridge A great way to make the phpBB forum even better is to link it with Coppermine. Coppermine is an open-source photo gallery you can use on your website.

Adding AdSense to a phpBB3 Forum

November 23, 2009

Usually when you add AdSense to the pages of your website or blog, you might just add the code to your header, ensuring that it will show up on every page.  There’s a catch, though.  It’s actually against Google’s Terms of Service to have your advertising show up on all pages.  You’re supposed to exclude [...]

Online Communities for Online Community Managers

July 10, 2009

I recently came across a bunch of links for Online Community Manager groups or communities via the Online Community Manager LinkedIn group. I figured I’d share them! I haven’t signed up for many of these, so I don’t know if they’re worthwhile or not, but you can find that out for yourself. Communities of Practice [...]
